Today, Monday, November 15, is America Recycles Day – the only national day dedicated to encouraging Americans to recycle and buy recycled products. Started by the recycling sector organization National Recycling Coalition in 1997, America Recycles Day has been a program of Keep America Beautiful since 2009.

We think one day isn’t long enough! This entire week, from today through Sunday, Nov. 21, we are teaming up with Nokia to recycle mobile devices.

Any phone from any manufacturer will be accepted.
